Muh Nazis, ok fhoenix. I'm military also and I consider it a matter that should be handled in the courts or through elections, not on a goddamn football field. Consider this my farewell__________________"Getting your motor revved about taking our guns is going to be what undoes your efforts."

ESPN depends on nfl and college football. Without espn no softball on tv nor funds from football to funs college softball facilities. Softball does not self support. Majority of basketball does not either. travel, trainers, equiptment etc. is year round and the games don't generate any notable reveue. When a football stadium can seat 80k to 100k and media and playoffs, bowl game revenue, etc and you take that revenue away all sports suffer.

Cry me a river, so be it. Should have thought about that before he started kneeling

Every Action has an Equal and Opposite Reaction

Has anybody caught the PSA from the NFLPA about the military? Looks like a big CYA moment!__________________If we are not careful, our colleges will produce a group of close-minded, unscientific, illogical propagandists, consumed with immoral acts. - Dr. Martin Luther King

“Everyone is in favor of free speech. Hardly a day passes without its being extolled, but some people's idea of it is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone else says anything back, that is an outrage.” ― Winston S. Churchill

When California lawmakers return to the Capitol in January, the state chapter of the NAACP will be seeking their support for a campaign to remove “The Star-Spangled Banner” as the national anthem.

The organization last week began circulating among legislative offices two resolutions that passed at its state conference in October: one urging Congress to rescind “one of the most racist, pro-slavery, anti-black songs in the American lexicon” as the national anthem, and another in support of former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who launched a protest movement against police brutality among professional athletes by kneeling when “The Star-Spangled Banner” was played before games.

“We owe a lot of it to Kaepernick,” California NAACP President Alice Huffman said. “I think all this controversy about the knee will go away once the song is removed.”

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell tacitly acknowledged the damage done by the politicization of football in remarks delivered on Wednesday.

“People come to our stadiums to be entertained and have fun,” the commissioner noted, “not to be protested to.”

The remarks came as part of Bloomberg’s The Year Ahead Summit and reflect a recognition of a ratings decline and criticism from some sponsors. Though Goodell held that he hoped to learn from the concerns of players, he reiterated his desire that they stand for the national anthem.

“I think that’s one of the things I think when we have a platform the way we do, people seek to find that division and I think that’s something we try to resist,” Goodell explained of the protests. “And in this case I’ve been very clear about this — the anthem, the respect for our flag is very important. So, I want to see our players stand.”

Despite the league’s endorsement last month of federal legislation aimed at reforming federal prisons and sentencing, Goodell maintained that “politics is not something we do.”__________________#SCOTUS

If I were the team owners, I would offer the guy 10 million dollars and duct tape it to his head to prevent concussion protocol controversy, and give him a swift kick in the ass from the limo to the curb. Better yet, a parachute pack loaded with the cash, and a kick out of the corporate jet. Either way, it equates to increased revenue with only a measly 10 million dollar outlay.__________________Jane you ignorant slut. Keep your booger hook of the bang switch, you stupid Socialist.

Beer me Hippie. I feel more like I do now, than when I first got here.

Oh, I love old school football. The ghosts from the past and all. I wish I could still watch it. What do you think Lombardi, or Landry would have done to any man on his team if they would have disrespected our flag and our nation in a public display the way these "men" have?

It's the same with the actors and actresses. They just have to get on a soapbox and tell Americans what they should think, or how terrible Americans are that don't agree with their political views. From that moment on, I can't watch a movie with them in it, and enjoy watching their craft no matter how well they perform. They ruined it not only for themselves, but everyone else as well.__________________Jane you ignorant slut. Keep your booger hook of the bang switch, you stupid Socialist.

Fully agree Woody. We have a guy here. He does the full exact equivalent of the finger wagging from on high. Then he gets so upset, so upended when he is shown to be wrong. At which point he is only left with this pontificating disconnected operation to play out.__________________Originally Posted by Fresh"Shows the level of dementia in gun owners when you think driving a car is somehow comparable to driving a car.

Had someone disrespected the flag, we all would agree that it would have to stop. Mischaracterizing a kneel in protest to social injustice as disrespecting veterans and the flag is patently dishonest. State the act as it is actually being performed.......He chose to sit and when it was brought to his attention the basic act of sitting, ignoring the ceremony disrespected it, he modified it to kneeling. We kneel at all sorts of acts of worship and respect. If you want to discredit the act with a measure of truth, don't continually misrepresent the action. __________________

"I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color," Kaepernick told NFL Media in an exclusive interview after the game. "To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder."

Obviously his general studies degree from Nevada isn't very good. We see players all the time appealing and still playing while it works through the system.

His words fresh:

So you will agree it was in protest to the nation, not veterans or the flag itself? Would you agree that not showing respect is different from showing disrespect? Showing disrespect would require some overt action, demonstrating that disrespect. By amending his action when brought to his attention it might be construed as disrespect, I counter he made a reasonable adjustment. __________________

Inb4 you point out racists/kkk/nazi's are dangerous, I openly disavow those elements from the left and from the right.

Too bad you don't disavow Antifa, would go a long way towards creating a more collaborative environment. __________________Originally Posted by Fresh"Shows the level of dementia in gun owners when you think driving a car is somehow comparable to driving a car. "

Salient point. Dewey and Fresh have both accused me of being a racist because they were embarrassed in exchanges where they were shown to lack a certain level of knowledge.

He's gone completely delusional with the a$$ kicking the GOP is giving his beloved party.

If you call someone a racist (which as a moderator, Dewey should do something about, but we all know why he won't - Red Team/Blue Team), you should be able to back it up. If you can't, you just look like an uneducated dumba$$.

If being stupid got you fired, how would the circle support their families? Not fair!__________________
